Cancelling Any Friend in Life

If a “friend” cancels you like a stamp, they never were you friend in the first place! Friends give people space to be themslves! They welcomed you, and trusted you in their heart’s space, Moreover, not one of us wants a friend, that thinks they are a god. A Mr.or Mrs, stuffed shirt, an inelligensia of know it all? A friend need not be a Ph,D to us, nor flash her or hishatred in our face. That is an inhumane, arrogant disgrace! Just someone who truly cares about us, who and honors us as we are! With understanding, grace andd gentleness, of and compassion beyond par! And always remembers.. we all part of the human race, By God’s most kind and generous holy grace. Hatred and genocide in any, a hideous and ugly face! 1/26/2025

Pangie this was nice to be reminded of. True friends are so special and difficult to find in life. They are like a diamond in the rough. You gave wonderful examples and you are so right. I am favoring this rhyme from you because it reminded me of what true friendship is and anything less isn't. God bless you for writing this heartfelt piece... Hugs...

Hi dear Pangie, those who cancel you were not real friends in the first place, far better off without them. xx

John… oh my! How wise you are!!! Ome has to let go of them like ribbons in the sky. I do know on any site, one can be fooled easily. My love to you and God’s blessings. Pangie xx

Hi A.A… I do thank you for coming to read me.)) It does my heart good.. People are not insects, are they? Stepping on a heart is muder of the spiririt in the first degree, God counts mean words, and acts. Pangie xx

It wouuld?Then I did not get not get my point across. A cancelled friend is one who is hated and hurts,painful. Itslap in your face.. Like I would write you a mean letter assuming you are are stupid I don’t think you would lik It.? I don’t think any poet here should be treated way — it only happened once to me .. I know I am not stupid. Also insulted my pfriend Who is the author of three books and a writer !for a magazine. It is better to ask questions than assume people are stupid And worse than they reason poem again in favor of wiping out a whole race. Pangie ,That is what the Nazis did. Pangie. M

Pangie, you are the queen of saying what's on your mind, in of course, a well made poem. I think your second line resonates most with me, with two apt points, for sure.

Dearest David, Honored by your visit today. Must be a good day. Philadelphia won and you commented..)) . I’ll be celebrating my 56th wedding anniversary, but my husband passed away at 40.. makes no difference. He was a big influence on my life.. probably the one that irritates people most. I’m too honest.. I’m too forthright.. I don’t make people laugh all the time. I don’t have that ability here..(I do other places.) Yes, I like tsecond line also.. I’ve come to the conclusion that friends are extremely rare. My hope for you is continuing in your great writing and if you have something to say to me, say it in email or however… but my affection for you will not stop even if you think differently. I won’t hit you over the head with a broom .Nor will I ever call you a creep or worse. Good writers do not treat other good writers like garbage or trash! Love, Pangie xx

When this happens it is so cold and cruel. This can happen virtually or in person. Your poem is right on point. Very well written.

Hi elena. I guess it takes all kinds of nuts to make the world.. I have been here for almost 86 years and I can’t understand it. I never will so I don’t try.. one must move on and hope that the next new friend you meet will cherish you.. I think you are right and I will agree with you. This is a very well written poem.. Not only that it has a point and it is not pointless nor created to please anybody. It is not in any contest, never will be.. and I expect no trophy for being myself ever. I do my best to be myself.. which can really upset other people. Too bad.!Roflmao! Camping of anything sadder..than living my life as a monkey and string to please others. The emptiness of that rings in my ears., ouch. Love, XxPangie

Hello Panagiota, Right, i would not do this to anyone. Right there is nothing wrong with friends having differences. Except wishing death on someone is not right. You write the topics that are an interest to you. Some people are interested in those topics. Hugs. xxx /Darlene/

The poem tells the story, Darlene! I know you for a long time, you never would do this to anyone.there is nothing wrong with friends having differences of all kinds, but wishing death on people, crosses a line. Notice how few reads this got, thats OK, i dont write to be popular or loved. I write to tell it like it is….I am not going to write insignificant, easy , cute, poems and sell my soul to be liked. I expect more of myself. I dont write for glory, roses or power! Love, Pangie
